Cell motion and mechanobiology
Diverse new and stimulating results at the interfaces between cell and molecular biology and biophysics were presented in this session cochaired by Ewa Paluch (University College London) and Dennis Discher (University of Pennsylvania). A number of physical features of the cell and its microenvironment were shown to impact the functions and fates of diverse cell types. Five talks of standard len...
متن کاملMechanobiology and developmental control.
Morphogenesis is the remarkable process by which cells self-assemble into complex tissues and organs that exhibit specialized form and function during embryological development. Many of the genes and chemical cues that mediate tissue and organ formation have been identified; however, these signals alone are not sufficient to explain how tissues and organs are constructed that exhibit their uniq...
متن کاملMechanobiology of tendon.
Tendons are able to respond to mechanical forces by altering their structure, composition, and mechanical properties--a process called tissue mechanical adaptation. The fact that mechanical adaptation is effected by cells in tendons is clearly understood; however, how cells sense mechanical forces and convert them into biochemical signals that ultimately lead to tendon adaptive physiological or...
متن کاملCellulite histopathology and related mechanobiology.
Cellulite, sometimes called gynoid lipodystrophy, is much more prevalent in women than in men. There are glaring discrepancies regarding the microanatomical descriptions of this condition in the literature. A lumpy aspect of the dermo-hypodermal interface is often cited, but it appears to represent a gender-linked characteristic of the thighs and buttocks without being a specific sign of cellul...
متن کاملThe mechanobiology of osteoarthritis
In combining biomechanical investigations with microanatomical studies, the authors have found new evidence suggesting a mechanobiological link between the altered microstructural response of degenerate cartilage to load, and the way in which structural changes develop in the early osteoarthritic joint. This paper presents the data and background for a new hypothesis exploring the initiation an...
